CELEBRATING SUCCESS We are absolutely delighted to share the fantastic success of this year's February Mock results! This milestone is a brilliant reflection of the ambition and endeavour our students have shown throughout the academic year. As a cohort, our students have performed exceptionally well. Beyond just the grades, they have demonstrated strong academic progress and a clear, unwavering commitment to striving for excellence. These results are a testament to the positive learning culture we continue to build together. Seeing so many of our young people rise to the challenge with resilience and focus has been truly wonderful. We have presented blazers to our highest-performing, and most improved students in recognition of their outstanding results and dedication. We are incredibly proud of this year's cohort and look forward to seeing them continue to thrive as they build on this success. Congratulations to all of our students for their hard work and achievements #TeamSJH #StudentSuccess #AcademicExcellence #NewTraditions #Achievement

It's been a busy day in the Catering department! Our Key Stage 3 students have been working hard on their practical assessments today and the results were delicious! Year 7 mastered the art of dough, making their very own bread for some incredible-looking pizzas. Year 8 turned up the heat with some zesty Mexican fajitas! Well done to all our budding chefs, it was wonderful to see such focus and talent in the kitchen today. #TeamSJH #Catering #FutureChefs #PracticalAssessment #PizzaAndFajitas
